Ford Release Official Power Numbers for Upcoming 2020 Mustang Shelby GT500

Ford has finally released the official power numbers for the much-anticipated 2020 Mustang Shelby GT500 and in doing so, they join some pretty exclusive company. The Shelby GT500 will produce 760 horsepower and a 625 lb.-ft. of torque which will make it the most powerful street-legal Ford ever. In fact, that power produced by the  5.2L supercharged V8 makes it the most power- and torque-dense supercharged production V8 in the world. As mentioned, this puts the GT500 in elite company in terms of muscle cars as the 760 horsepower surpasses the 755 produced by the Corvette ZR1 and the 717 horsepower found in the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The torque number falls short of the aforementioned ZR1 and Hellcat which is likely due to displacement as the 5.2L V8 found in the Ford is much less than the respective 6.2L offerings found in the Chevy and Dodge. We will keep you posted with more details and an on-sale date as they become available.
